Welcome back to ACY Securities' five-part educational series on Price Action Trading, hosted by Nathan Bray. In this second session, we delve into two fundamental concepts in trading: support and resistance. These concepts are crucial for anyone looking to enhance their trading strategy.
Introduction to support and resistance: Learn how to identify support (a level where a downtrend can pause due to buying pressure) and resistance (a level where an uptrend can pause due to selling pressure).
Practical examples:
- Analysing the Aussie-Yen (AUD/JPY) chart to identify resistance on different timeframes.
- Understanding the role of historical price levels in predicting market behaviour.
- Using indicators to simplify the identification of support and resistance levels.
Combining trends with support and resistance:
- Explore how combining these concepts can enhance your trading decisions.
- Practical demonstration on gold and AUD/USD charts to illustrate buying and selling strategies based on these levels.
Real-world application:
See real-time chart analysis and understand how to apply these concepts to your trading strategy. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced trader, this video offers valuable insights to improve your market analysis and trading decisions.

GBP/USD kicks off the new trading week on a positive foot and manages to reclaim the 1.2600 barrier and beyond on the back of the Greenback's steady price action.

USD/JPY falls sharply to near 151.40 as Yen performs strongly across the board on upbeat Q4 Japan GDP data. Flash Q4 Japan’s GDP data showed that the economy expanded by 0.7%. A delay in Trump’s reciprocal tariff plan and poor Retail Sales data would keep the US Dollar on the backfoot.

Bitcoin Price Forecast: BTC stalemate soon coming to an end
